Bug#777123: O: zpaq -- maximum reference compressor for ZPAQ open standard

[Jari Aalto <jari.aalto@cante.net>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Description: maximum reference compressor for ZPAQ open standard
 PAQ familily is a series of open source data compression
 archivers that have evolved through collaborative
 development to top rankings on several benchmarks measuring
 compression ratio although at the expense of speed and
 memory usage. . This package includes ZPAQ, a proposed
 standard format for highly compressed data that allows new
 compression algorithms to be developed without breaking
 compatibility with older programs.

I no longer use this application. The package uses
standard 3.9.1, debhelper 8 and old Copyright Format.

For a prospective new maintainer:

    Start maintaining the package from Git[*]

    git clone $LOGIN@git.debian.org:/git/collab-maint/zpaq.git

    https://packages.qa.debian.org/z/zpaq.html

Notes:
